Locating the drawing room

Let us see how directions influence the location of the drawing room:
North-west location: The north-west quadrant, belonging to the element of air, is an
ideal location for the drawing room, that is, if you want to avoid late night parties, gettogethers, etc. This quadrant indicates movement and makes guests restless,
encouraging them to leave.
North-east location: This makes the drawing room a storehouse of positive energy
and bestows the users with serenity and mental peace.
Northern location: This quadrant of wealth and health adds a congenial ambience to
the room and infuses it with positive vibrations.
South-west location: This attracts guests like flies to sugar! Since this corner makes
one feel quite at home, the guests may become pests. However, this quadrant is
favourable for the occupants.

Drawing room entrance

The main entrance of the house is usually through the drawing room. When locating the
entrance, ensure that there is more space towards the right. The direction of the main
entrance is significant. Let us see how:
North or east entrance: Bestows health, wealth, prosperity and fame.
South, north-east or south-east entrance: Indicates success, but through hard work.
West entrance: Ideal for scholars, as it bestows a calming influence.
North-west entrance: Indicates development in all spheres.
South-west entrance: Considered inauspicious. Its negative influence can be
countered by shifting the entrance towards the west

General tips for the drawing room

Never have beam or girder running along the ceiling of the drawing room, since sitting
under one causes mental turmoil and stress.
Colour the walls with either white or light green as this promotes a sense of
togetherness and affection between the guests and occupants. Do not use dark shades
except on the east wall.
Use light curtains on the windows and doors in the north-east wall and heavy curtains
for the south-west wall of the drawing room.
Keep some space in the north-east corner of the drawing room. Ensure that it remains
clean and clutter-free. Enhance the tranquility of this space by placing a few potted
plants.
